Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Therefore, Du Ruofeng was born with extremely powerful Wind Attribute, and naturally, his Cultivation Technique is also the Wind Attribute Cultivation Technique of the Thunderwind Empire, which adds wings to a tiger.

It is worth mentioning that this Second Prince of the Thunderwind Empire, when he broke through to the Meridian Rushing Realm, activated a low-level Spiritual Rank Thunder Attribute Ancestor Vein, and since then has been hailed as the most talented person in the Thunderwind Empire for a century.

As for the Crown Prince of the Thunderwind Empire, he is skilled in handling political affairs, and although he also has some cultivation talent compared to Du Ruofeng, he is far inferior, so he did not come to participate in the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference.

Wind and Thunder Attributes both provide enhancements to speed, so at the same level, Du Ruofeng has never seen anyone with a faster speed than his own. That strike a moment ago, he was set on securing victory.

Yet, that strike he was certain of was actually dodged by that kid who’s only at the Mid Stage of the Meridian Union Realm. At this moment, Du Ruofeng felt a fury as if his dignity had been trampled upon.

But what Du Ruofeng didn’t know was that his unbeatable speed at the same level on the Hidden Dragon Continent, in Yun Xiao’s eyes, was just mediocre.

How would a low-level Earth Rank Wind Attribute Cultivation Technique fare? What about the Ancestor Veins where the Wind and Thunder converge? In Yun Xiao’s eyes, they were nothing more than clowns performing antics. At least in terms of speed, they were not even slightly comparable to himself.

However, Yun Xiao’s opponent at this moment was not only Du Ruofeng. As he dodged the latter’s strike, an overwhelming force suddenly attacked him, even more formidable than that of Li Yue from the Qingshan Sect.

”Hmph, one with speed and another with strength, huh?”

Yun Xiao immediately sensed that Du Ruofeng was probably best at speed, while the one attacking him now was likely most proficient in strength.

Therefore, at this moment, Yun Xiao made up his mind and did not dodge as he had before, because if it was just a contest of strength, he was not afraid of these geniuses who were only at the Late Stage of the Meridian Union Realm.

Yun Xiao guessed correctly; the genius accompanying Du Ruofeng’s attack came from the Jingshan Empire, named Lu Jinghong. Their empire’s method of Physical Body Cultivation was indeed a notch above that of the Qingshan Sect.

Moreover, unlike the Qingshan Sect, Lu Jinghong also came from the royal family of the Jingshan Empire, and due to a millennium of inheritance, he was born with a formidable physique unlike Li Yue who had acquired a powerful body through later cultivation.

With innate divine strength and the unique Body Refining cultivation method of the Jingshan Empire, even though Lu Jinghong was not yet thirty years old and his Cultivation was only at the Late Stage of the Meridian Union Realm, if it was just a comparison of physical strength, he was hardly weaker than some Advanced Fifth Rank Vein Demons at their peak.

At least in terms of comparing physical strength, Lu Jinghong’s confidence in his speed was the same as Du Ruofeng’s. Especially as he stepped forward and saw that the youngster in front did not shy away or dodge, a cold sneer flashed in his eyes.

”Seeking your own death, you can’t blame others!”

Typically, Cultivators who practice body refining don’t have much compassion, especially under the watchful eyes of several big shots. If they were to take the lead, it would definitely be impressive.

Thinking this way, Lu Jinghong’s right leg surged with tremendous power. Worth mentioning is that when he broke through to the Meridian Rushing Realm, the Ancestor Vein he activated was housed within his right leg, and it was also an Earth Attribute Ancestor Vein.

It must be said that his mastery of strength has surpassed most people in the arena; even Shen Wannian and Nie Qianqiu would not recklessly compete in physical strength against Lu Jinghong.

Yet that kid who was only at the Mid Stage of the Meridian Union Realm seemed to be unaware of this, and as Lu Jinghong’s right leg was about to strike, he boldly extended his own right leg in kind.

Seeing this scene, apart from Liu Hanyi and Mo Qing Ling Pill who knew his background, the other onlookers sighed and shook their heads, thinking that he was way out of his league.

Who is Lu Jinghong? He is the invincible presence at the same level in terms of physical strength. Because of his physical strength, his reputation on the Hidden Dragon Continent is quite prominent; at least everyone present knew about his formidable physical power.

Born with a hereditary bloodline, having cultivated a physical-strengthening technique, and having activated an Earth Attribute Ancestor Vein, if such force could not take down a Mid Stage Meridian Union Realm youngster, then Lu Jinghong would truly be unworthy of his reputation.

Bang!

Under the almost unanimous mindset of the spectators, Lu Jinghong’s right foot finally collided with Yun Xiao’s right foot, emitting a loud noise.

Whoosh...

Then the spectators watched dumbfounded as a slightly burly figure flew backward like a cloud caught in the wind, and that right leg, emitting a special aura, seemed to twist into an odd angle.

”Lu Jinghong, defeated?”

”And on the grounds of a contest in physical strength?”

”Isn’t it said that inside his right leg there is an Earth Attribute Ancestor Vein? How could this be the result?”

”Could it be that he failed to activate the Ancestor Vein Power in time?”

”...”

After a brief silence, a chorus of sharp intakes of breath and subdued murmurs filled the air, all tinged with disbelief.

Lu Jinghong’s physical strength was no secret among the major empires of the Hidden Dragon Continent, but how could he fail to withstand even one move from a mere Meridian Rushing Realm youngster, and have his right leg, infused with the Ancestor Vein, kicked and broken?

Now, the spectators finally shifted their stunned gaze from Lu Jinghong to the roughly dressed youth, who was casually retracting his right leg as if he had just done something utterly trivial.

What the crowd didn’t realize was that to Yun Xiao, this really was a trivial matter. To them, Lu Jinghong’s physical strength was formidable, but that was only in the eyes of the Hidden Dragon Continent’s talents.

But who is Yun Xiao? He is none other than the reincarnation of the Long Xiao Battle God, a fierce man with four powerful Ancestor Veins, who also cultivated the Ancient Dragon Taming Technique and had undergone body refining with two special items.

After Yun Xiao’s breakthrough to the Mid Stage of Meridian Union Realm, his physical strength was probably no less formidable than that of a Low-Level Sixth Rank Vein Demon. How could Lu Jinghong, whose body was comparable to a Peak Advanced Fifth Rank Vein Demon, be his match in a fight?

However, the others didn’t know. All they knew was that Lu Jinghong, known for his invincible physique, had his right leg kicked and broken with one hit. Therefore, didn’t that mean that the young fellow named Yun Xiao, merely at the Mid Stage of Meridian Union Realm, possessed physical strength far more fearsome than Lu Jinghong’s?

The scene where Yun Xiao previously evaded Du Ruofeng’s attack was not overlooked by the crowd. From the look of shock and anger in Du Ruofeng’s eyes, it seemed that in terms of speed, Yun Xiao might even be a cut above.

Faster than Du Ruofeng of the Thunderwind Empire, and much stronger than Lu Jinghong of the Jingshan Empire, Yun Xiao had, with just two moves, already completely blown away all the spectators.

Even from the northern seats, the magnates of the Tenglong Continent revealed a hint of an unusual gleam in their aged eyes. The youth whom Qian Sanyuan and Xue Ningxiang both regarded highly indeed possessed some exceptional skills.

On the other hand, the talents such as Shen Wannian and Nie Qianqiu were feeling complicated emotions. They originally had not taken a Mid Stage of Meridian Union Realm youngster seriously, and it seemed they had underestimated Yun Xiao after all.

”Brother Wei, let’s join forces!”

In the arena, seeing Lu Jinghong thrown far with his right leg broken and rendered incapable of continuing the fight, Du Ruofeng was not willing to give up on the Dragon Flag that was within reach and immediately shouted out loud.

Although Yun Xiao had just displayed astonishing speed and strength, the confident Du Ruofeng believed his own speed made it impossible for Yun Xiao to even touch him. As long as they didn’t compete in physical strength, they would stand invincible against one by joining forces.

As soon as the words fell, Du Ruofeng activated his Ancestor Vein Power, his speed increasing further. In almost an instant, he arrived behind Yun Xiao.

However, just like his previous attack, Du Ruofeng’s strike did not reach Yun Xiao at all. His signature speed from the Hidden Dragon Continent, just like Lu Jinghong’s physical strength, was nothing more than common in the eyes of Yun Xiao.

As Yun Xiao’s figure slightly flickered, he faced a long-armed and long-legged youth, on whose chest was embroidered a ferocious-looking Divine Dragon with silk thread.

This youth, referred to as ”Brother Wei” by Du Ruofeng, came from the Youlong Empire and was named Wei You. Although the Youlong Empire’s name was overbearingly domineering, it was considered a mid-to-upper-tier empire on the Hidden Dragon Continent.

Nonetheless, the Youlong Empire, named after the ”Youlong”, naturally had its unique features, for the royal family of this empire was most skilled in Water Attribute power.

Swoosh!

Hence, just as Yun Xiao dodged Du Ruofeng’s strike and was abruptly confronted by Wei You, he heard the sound of a Water Flow Body. Soon in front of him, a huge Water Dragon formed from nowhere, roaring and hurtling toward him.

”Heh, Water Attribute Meridian Techniques, huh?”

Yun Xiao’s vision was exceptional. With one glance, he could see the huge Water Dragon was conjured by this Wei You fellow, through the use of a special Water Attribute Cultivation Technique, combined with a particular Water Attribute Meridian Technique.

But just like with the other two, Wei You’s renowned Water Dragon Meridian Techniques, when seen in the eyes of Yun Xiao, were likewise trivial tricks.

Let’s not forget, embedded within Yun Xiao’s left arm was the Water Extreme Cold Ice Ancestor Vein. Apart from exuding the Ice Cold Power, this Ancestor Vein also contained a toxic potency of the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad, exceedingly mysterious.

Therefore, when he saw the huge Water Dragon approaching, Yun Xiao, like when confronting Lu Jinghong, still didn’t dodge or evade, but simply gently lifted his left hand.

Yun Xiao’s arm, merely a few feet in length, seemed incomparable to the Water Dragon, which was several yards long.

But when the watching crowd saw his movement, they couldn’t help but feel an odd sensation surging within them, as if this young man was about to deliver another big shock to them all.
